Babies Need Exercise Too

Apparently, back in the day, it was important that babies got exercise too… no matter how dangerous or harmful it may have been to them. This is a picture of Lauri Alwyn swinging her nine-month-old son for his daily exercise session in 1937. Considering that during the 1930s, babies were kept in cages dangling from the windows, dangling them by their feet in the air doesn’t seem like such a big deal. Nowadays, people are overly concerned with the safety of their children, so the likelihood of parents ‘exercising’ them in this manner is essentially zero.
